I Nathaniel Flint of New Boston in the County of Hillsborough in the State of New Hampshire Tanner in my sixty seventh year of age do solemnly swear that in the year A D 1775 sometime in May of that year to the best of my recollection I enlisted for eight months in the Company Com- manded by Capt.

Mansfield  Israel Hutch- inson in the Massachusetts Line which time I faithfully served out & at the expiration of said term of eight months or a few days previously I enlisted into the Company Commanded by Billy Porter in the Regiment Commanded by Col. Israel Hutchinson in the Massachusetts line for the term of one year, which I faithfully served out and received my discharge at the expiration of said year in Trenton New Jersey with honour by my Officers after the Battle in the taking of Trenton aforesaid. I was out afterwards in the three months service in 1780 at West Point. I am reduced in my circumstances being in possession of a small house & about forty acres of land which I purchased for five hundred dollars but have not paid but

for about half of that sum towards it the same is incumbered by a Mortgage for the remainder besides being otherwise indebted so that should I sell all I think I should not have one hundred dollars left towards my support & being somewhat afflicted at times with rheumatik complaints, I am not able to work but a part of the time & which compels me to say I stand in need of assistance from my country to support me thro' the short period of my life.

NOTES.—The last four blanks are left for the applicant to set forth the time, place, and manner of the loss or destruction of the original certificate.
The oath to be taken before a duly qualified magistrate, whose official character and signature must be properly authenticated. If the pensioner has never received a formal certificate, but has drawn his pension on a mere notification, as was the case in a few instances many years ago, he should leave out the above words in italics, and insert, in lieu thereof, " but has never received a formal certificate, and now wishes to obtain one. "
The pensioner's oath must be supported by the evidence of another person as to identity. The person must swear that he well knows him to be the same person described in the above affidavit. The magistrate must certify that the deponent is a person of veracity. This oath must also be authenticated by the certificate of the proper office, under his seal of officer, setting forth that the officer before whom the affidavit may be made is a Justice of the Peace, Judge, or Notary Public, as the case may be.
When a person acting as an Agent or Attorney for a Pensioner, loses the certificate, the affidavit of that person is also required, which must be authenticated as above.
In every case where the Clerk of the Court, or other certifying officer, has no public seal of officer, the certificate of a member of Congress, proving the official character and signature of the certifying officer, should be sent with the papers.
Mode of authenticating papers.—In every instance where the certificate of the certifying officer who authenticates the papers is not written on the same sheet which contains the affidavit, or other paper authenticated, the certificate must be attached thereto by a piece of tape or small ribbon, the ends of which must pass under the seal of office of the certifying officer, so as to prevent any paper from being improperly attached to the certificate.
No attention will be given to applications from persons who act as agents, unless they are known at the War Department or are vouched for as respectable persons by some one who is known to the Department.
